Nouroz

It was the first celebrating Nouroz without my family specially my mom.
I can say, I had a hard time without them and I felt it by my heart. But this is my life.
This new year I think I should become an extraordinary.
see the best in everyone and everything.
Accept that life has its ups and down.
Face my fears.
Live in the moment.
Be honest with myself.
Finish what I started.
Don't focus on negative thoughts.
Don't lose hope.
I don't know what tomorrow will bring.
I wish everyone a year full of love, happiness and peace.

spring is coming

I'm looking out my window, I can see the daffodils are blooming and the grass is changing from brown to green. I can smell the fragrance of fresh flowers.
All around town I can see the flowering cherry and plum trees have popped into bloom.
I can already smell the scent of spring in the air. I love the longer, warmer days.
Spring brings new life and It is my favorite time of the year. Also the first day of spring is Persian new year (Noroz).
It announces that spring is coming:)

life

"Being happy doesn't mean every thing's perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections."

"If you look at what you have in life, you'll always have more. If you look at what you don't have in life, you'll never have enough."

"Pay no mind to those that talk behind your back, it simply means that you are two steps ahead!"

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."

"Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."

what do you do when you make a mistake?

" To make no mistakes is not the power of man, but from their errors and mistakes the wise and good learn wisdom for the future."
Plutarch

I'm thinking about apologizing, every one makes mistakes. if you think about it, you have made your share of them over the years a misdirected package, a forgotten deadline.
some reactions like anger, frustration and embarrassment.
I think this is great virtue in making mistakes, learning from them and improving along the way.
when you fix a problem, you not only get a chance to right a wrong, but you can build a strong working relationship, too.
But the point is how you approach a person to apologize.
Some times saying " I'm sorry" doesn't seem sufficient, offering something extra can build good will.
I'm trying to keep a record of my errors, the causes, and their solutions.
It helps me to prevent the same mistakes.
